Distribution of quinolone resistance gene (qnr) in ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. in Lomé, Togo

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2019
Qnr genes are known to confer a low-level resistance to fluoroquinolone in Enterobacteriaceae. They are often found on the same resistance plasmids as extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and constitute the most common antibiotic resistance mechanism ...

Comparative genomics of ESBL-producingEscherichia coli(ESBL-Ec) reveals a similar distribution of the 10 most prevalent ESBL-Ec clones and ESBL genes among human community faecal and extra-intestinal infection isolates in the Netherlands (2014–17) [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2021
AbstractIntroductionThe human gut microbiota is an important reservoir of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-Ec). Community surveillance studies of ESBL-Ec to monitor circulating clones and ESBL genes are logistically challenging and costly.ObjectivesTo evaluate if isolates obtained in routine clinical practice can be used as an alternative to ...
